Book Description
Six gems of geometry is an introductory geometry textbook for general audiences. The book focuses mainly on the teachings of Euclid. It contains a story inspired by William Blake's painting, Newton the Measurer, where an encounter is imagined between Euclid and Newton, suggesting a deep influence the former may have had on the latter.
